WORLD WAR I, SELF-DETERMINATION, AND THE LEGACIES OF MEDIEVAL JURISPRUDENCE

Abstract

The principle of self-determination in international law is inpart an outgrowth of particularly Christian concepts of state sovereigntythat emerged in Europe at the end of the Middle Ages, and which haveenjoyed a considerable afterlife. Even if its medieval origins are largelyunappreciated by modern scholars of international law, the principle ofself-determination was appealed to in the nineteenth and early twentiethcenturies in ways that privileged Christian concepts of statehood andnational identity. Further, this nineteenth-century experience,particularly as it unfolded in the Ottoman Balkans, had important butneglected repercussions for the development of international law atVersailles in 1919 and thereafter
